Do you have an emergency preparedness kit ready to go?
Earthquakes, hurricanes, snow storms, power outages and floods could leave you and your family stranded at home for a few days without power or electricity. How many of you have an extra supply of food, water, and emergency items in your homes? Preparing for a natural disaster can be overwhelming. It really doesn’t have to be though. I believe the first place to start would be putting together 72 Hour Kits and Emergency Supplies for your family. Today I have gathered together some simple ideas on how to get started.
Being prepared helps me to sleep a little better at night! What about you?

Thanks! I love your round-up lists. This one is especially great.
Awesome list! Thanks!
Great lists for survival kit. Thanks.
A hand crank radio is a great idea! I have yet to find this item in an emergency kit list. Thanks for the tip.
The ultimate being prepared item I would argue that is missing from this list is a home generator that will provide instant backup power when needed. It’s a lifesaver and surprisingly affordable these days!
Great list! I like the inclusion of the “Fun Kit”!
Thanks so much!
